Reference models
A reference model for collaborative networks is a fundamental instrument for the smooth development of the area. An example of reference model is ARCON (A Reference model for COllaborative Networks). An annual conference focused on Collaborative Networks is the Working Conference on Virtual Enterprises ('PRO-VE'). sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and Society of Collaborative Networks (SOCOLNET).
Challenges
If collaborative networks evolve and become increasingly popular with corporations and their extended networks, governance and security issues will need to be addressed. Of particular relevance is the study of behavioral aspects and reference models for collaborative networks.
